How much should I grow?

[AZCSceo]

If done correctly, a plant can easily yield one pound of medical marijuana.

Your yield will depend on your growing facility investment, knowledge base, and help structure. There are lots of dispensaries or affiliates that offer cannabis cultivation classes. Even a simple comm. college plant science class can be a big help.

Also, smoking the same medical marijuana day in and day out will eventually cause "strain burn" or a tolerance. Try to find more than one strain for your particular condition.

Good Luck to you

Yeah! THere answer is so simple 60 to 70 are enough.

I'm gearing up for my first grow and asking myself how much I should grow. I know, it sounds like a silly question, but those are such common keywords that the search function didn't yield any useful hits (pun intended... ).

Let's presume that lack of room inside or outside is not an issue. Nor is time, money to get started, learning curve, security, nor any of the usual impediments one can expect to encounter in the real world.

As a baseline, how much cured bud does it take to medicate myself (late-50's 190 lb male) once a day year 'round? And working backwards from there, how many plants does it take to produce that typically?

Indoor with 3 crops per year.

Outdoor with 1 crop a year.

Thanks! :thumbsup:

I had to giggle when I read this. I guess you need to leave room for a bed and a computer desk. Other than that, fill the place up!
Seriously, when I find myself on hard times.... like right now, when there are no meds to be had, I can stretch a 1/4 oz out for a long long time. When it becomes abundant, I seem to be capable of using quite a bit more. It all depends on the situation for me... but I have trouble imagining where I would draw the line that said I had too much.

I too am a first time grower. But what I can tell you is when you smoke the same bud for an extended period of time, you will get a tolerance for it.
Not to mention how bloody tired of it you would be... think about it.
What I am doing is still buying quality meds from a despencory, because I can't give you my word this bud is going to be dank! Expect trial and error! Gone through a few clones already because not every place sells quality clones. So keep your eyes peeled.
